history

Kronacker is the oldest demonstrable settlement in the Forstern-Hohenlinden-Haag area. The first documentary mention, dated April 26, 768. A church consecrated to St. Valentin was given to the diocese of Freising. The Mittbacher Au with its streams from the higher forest areas and the fertile loess soils in the foothills of this old moraine led to settlement in this favorable area early on.

The -ing places Ober- and Niederkaging were created in the early settlement period with Kronacker. A local nobility is proven from 980 AD to 1060 AD. Churches were built repeatedly in Kronacker. When Hohenlinden is first mentioned in 1377, Kronacker was over 600 years old and had its second or third church.

Kronacker was raised to a closed Hofmark in 1623 , a community with low jurisdiction in the Erding district court. Due to the dilapidation of the previous church, today's St. John's Church was rebuilt in 1725. It was a Christian center until 1903, its catchment area included the places Kronacker, Niederkaging, Oberkaging, Berg, Birkach, Kreith, Hohenlinden and the corridors of Altstockach and Altmühlhausen. Later also the new settlements of the 19th century Neustockach and Neumühlhausen. The regional infrastructure of this catchment area was aligned to the church in Kronacker. In 1753 a moving post was set up on the Upper Vienna Post Route, the route used the old Roman road that leads past Kreith. In the original cadastre it is referred to as Hochstrasse and Alte Poststrasse, post stations were in Haag and Anzing. The Anzing post office burned down in 1768 and had to file for bankruptcy. Since the Haag-Munich route with only one stopover turned out to be too long, post offices were set up in Hohenlinden and Parsdorf in 1771. Suddenly Hohenlinden gained supraregional importance for transport and this required associated infrastructure such as Schmied, Wagner, Kramer, Wirt, etc. This made Hohenlinden grow quickly and Kronacker's importance dwindled.

A community (local community / local committee) in Kronacker is documented up to the time of National Socialism. On April 1, 1939, contrary to the will of the majority of the affected population, the place was reclassified together with the local corridors Au, Berg, Oberkaging and Niederkaging from the community of Mittbach in the then Wasserburg am Inn district to the Hohenlinden community in the Ebersberg district. The former regional route infrastructure, oriented towards Kronacker, was undamaged at this time. The new sovereign changed the infrastructure of the paths towards Kronacker Church and the characteristics of the historical togetherness. The former relationships can now be seen in fragments. The Kronacker Church, today in a bad condition, was the Christian center in the area of ​​today's municipality of Hohenlinden for more than 1100 years and is today a branch church of the parish Hohenlinden, located in the municipality of Hohenlinden in the district of Ebersberg and thus in the wealthiest diocese in Germany, Munich-Freising.
